简介

Curtis Potter delivers the finest in this superb collection of classic country music featuring twin fiddles and superb guitars. "Down In Texas Today" is the third album from Heart of Texas Records on Curtis Potter. The album opens with the upbeat "One Away From One Too Many Heartaches" written by long time Potter friend Ray Pennington. Pennington also contributes "Then I Can Face Your Memory" and "So Many Ways To Say Goodbye". Potter also calls on some other legendary songwriters for this project including Hank Cochran and Red Lane on "I Wish It Was That Easy Going Home." Heart of Texas artist Leona Williams also lends her harmony vocals on the beautiful ballad. Cochran also contributes "We Never Touch At All"-a song that Merle Haggard also recorded in the 1980's. "I have always been a fan of the Texas shuffle and story songs," Potter said. "I really enjoyed recording 'Down In Texas Today' and 'If This Was Texas'. These songs show some of the special aspects of Texas." Potter rounds out "Down In Texas Today" with the Dave Kirby composition 'Old Loves Never Die' which he feels could be hit today, 'Oklahoma Sunshine' 'A Man With No Soul At All' and 'So Many Ways To Say Goodbye'. Potter calls on some of the finest Nashville musicians to be a part of "Down In Texas Today" including Buddy Emmons, Dave Kirby, Jimmy Capps, David Smith, Kevin Malone, Rob Hajacos, Hank Sanger and Bunky Keels. After a successful triple bypass surgery and artery replacement in January of 2006, Potter continues to tour thoughtout the Southwest.

Johnny Bush, Darrell McCall, Tony Booth, Jake Hooker, Frankie Miller, Joe Paul Nichols, Fiddlin Frenchie Burke, Billy Mata, Justin Trevino and Jody Nix among others came together to honor Potter. "We are so happy to have Curtis Potter on Heart of Texas Records," Heart of Texas Records President Tracy Pitcox said. "He has one of the finest voices in Country Music and fans all over the world.
